Not sure how hot this really is considering that basically all of Dell's retail pricing is for the suckers who don't know how to wait for promotions, but this screen is $90 off, and it seems to be a good deal if you can live without height and orientation adjustment.

No coupon, just go to Dell's page and buy straight up. Additional 3% off when paying with the Dell Preferred Account.

Theoretical view angels are very exciting, but in more practical terms, who is really constantly using their monitor from a 160 degree angle? The difference between a 5 ms and a 6 ms panel is equally theoretical, I doubt anyone could tell the two apart.

The one thing I noticed is that the E248WFP has 400cd/m2, not sure how much that matters in practical terms either though. The 2405WFPs I have are 500cd/m2, and I run them at 50% brightness else they are just too bright.
 
This monitor has been $289.99 for at least a week now from BestBuy.
 
This is a 6-bit panel unlike the more expensive Ultra Sharp 24" which is 8-bit, correct?
 
Picked mine up today from Best Buy for about 305 with tax

I hooked it up to a crappy computer to test it, no dead pixels from what I could tell. Couldn't really test it out too much since that computer is really limited. It does look very good and bright to me :) Overall i'm happy.
 
Sorry for the old bump, but:

You can purchase these monitors refurbished from Dell's outlet for $233 shipped after the 15% ejunkies coupon. I got mine a couple days ago and am very happy with it, looks brand new.


I have a question though, is there a common contrast/brightness/ect you have found to work? I am finding this monitor difficult to get exactly what I want on, and would love some advice. Currently using 20 brightness and 80 contrast, 50 sharpness, and the blue present :eek:
